Hi Don: Gr�ndonnerstag is Holy Thursday or Maundy Thursday - the day
before Good Friday or 3 days before Easter in Holy Week - the day on which
Jesus instituted the first Holy Communion. Probably someone has already
explained this to you but I don't get the replies. It has always been a
favorite day for Confirmation so that the new confirmands could receive
Communion on Easter Sunday. Jane
